Ann Cohen, EdinburghThe recent East Coast experience has shown that the state could successfully take over all lines again
Geraldine Mitchell, ManchesterThe fact that the French and German nationalised train industries have shares in the most profitable lines in Britain should speak for itself.
Owen Smithson, HornseaFor people not for profit.
Christopher Connery, BirminghamLong Overdue for changing, this nightmare called privatisation.
Paul Sinclair, BaldockThe current system just gives profits to private companies instead of the state.
Stewart Dean, BenfleetRailways are the arteries of the country and should be run as a non profit-making organisation with cheaper fares and better investment. Too much money is leaking out.
Greg Logan, KirkcaldyBring back a publicly-owned and run national rail service.
Cohen Braithwaite-Kilcoyne, WorcesterRe-nationalise! BBBR! F**k Virgin, First, Arriva, Stagecoach and the rest!
Aaron Malcolm, FifePrices are too high.
Steven Feven-Parsons, PlymouthI have wanted this for 27 years now.
Ashley Collier, MansfieldBring back British Rail.
Bruce Rose, Haywards HeathBring it on – if every commuter in the Southeast signed this then the government would have to listen.
Robert Rush, OkehamptonThe state of our railway system in the South West is the fault of successive governments. Please help fix it by campaigning to bring it back to public ownership.
Pauline Vernon, Weston-super-MareIt’s a no-brainer.
John Walton, Kirkby StephenIf only the amount of money wasted currently had been available to British Rail. We would truly have a world class railway.
Jon Matthews, SwanleyVote Green to bring back British Rail.
Kathleen Myers, MerseysideBring back all of the rail network.
Jason Warner, RaundsBring back British Rail. A unified railway is a good railway.
Daniel Leslie Leckenby, CosbyPeople before profits, and while we are at it let’s bring back gas, water and electricity too.
Rita Cocking, PlymouthThe railways have been going downhill since the days of the dreaded Dr Beeching. Why should we be the only country that has to pay over the odds to travel by rail?
Amanda Law, TwyfordRail travel should be cheaper than using the car, to encourage people to use the train instead. That’s why I support this campaign.
Mel Dickson, HartlepoolIt should never have been privatised in the first place.
Andrew Macpherson, GlasgowNeed to get our finger out. Going to need lots of electric railways in 20 years’ time when the oil runs out.
Gym Rotten, DoverBring back the blue and grey.
Francesca Bennison, St AgnesIt’s ludicrous for public money to be handed to private shareholders through TOC subsidies.
Amy Stretch-Parker, Lytham St AnnesIt should not be cheaper to drive than to travel by train.
Paul Harrop, HullPrivatised railways put profit before passengers. The result is unreliable, expensive services which are less safe. Public ownership is the only cure for this disaster.
Steven Thomas, HolyheadThey never should have been sold off any way.
Cathrine Simmons, Great TorringtonThe railway system is a mess. It is hard to book tickets at sensible prices, our local trains are full, in bad condition and uncomfortable while rural areas are neglected.
Kenneth Stirland, MiddlesbroughIf the rail service was re-nationalised it would be more reliable and cheaper, because it would not be running for private profit. I for one would use it again.
